July Recap

July was one of the best months I've had in a long time. Not that other months have been bad. This one was just especially good. I think this is mostly because I had the entire month off from school. Being homeschooled, I don't get to do that very often, so it was really exciting. Alright, now onto the next part of the recap.
Books Read in July








All of these were SO GOOD. Especially The Reader. Good thing it's a series!
Movies Watched in July


I think there was at least one other movie I watched, but I can't remember what it was. Anyway, these three were pretty great. 
TV Shows Watched in July
Seasons 2 and 3
LOST is a great show. Somewhat confusing? Yes. But definitely worth a watch.
I just skipped around through various seasons. This is one of those shows I mostly just watch with my family, and then we quote it......a lot. 
Season Three
It was a pretty good season, but I felt like the quality went downhill a bit, so I'll probably just rewatch the first two seasons, and the good episodes in the third season.
Again, various seasons. Ahhhh, it's so good, you guys. You should see it. 
Mostly Season Two, but, really, all of the seasons. The plot is so good, the characters are great, and I just love it. 
Again, various seasons. It's another fun show to watch with family, and it's hilarious. 
Also, the nickname my sisters and I had for Fred when we were little was ''Trap Chin.''
Season One
It's not the best show ever, but it's sweet and fun. Kurt and Mercedes are hands-down the best characters. And Santana and Brittany.
Events of July
-Like I mentioned earlier, the whole month of July [save a few days at the beginning of the month] I had no school, which was AWESOME.
-I got a lot of writing done. I kind of stopped doing some hobbies that I disliked doing, but, for whatever reason, was trying to convince myself that I did. Anyway, I got a lot more writing done. I also got more blogging done. I've been trying to post twice a week, but when school starts, and if COVID doesn't impact sports [I live in a REALLY small town, so hardly anyone's gotten sick] I may stick to once a week.
-Basketball
My sisters and I have been playing some basketball together in our yard, which is fun. I think we've gotten pretty good at it.
-Fandoms
I'm just putting 'fandoms' as opposed to books and movies and TV and music, because there was a lot of good media discoveries this month
-Endless hours of swinging and listening to an audio book, or the cast of Glee [seriously, their covers of ''Somebody to Love'' and ''Don't Stop Believin''' are amazing].
-Playing very wild, lively random games. 
Usually involving solving a murder. As a team, we'd probably make good detectives in real life
-I did a community service project, which was all about helping people who work in healthcare, since it's been a rough couple of months for them. It was only for about an hour or two for two days, and was mostly just putting together sandwiches, cleaning tables, and stuff like that. 
-Fun summer stuff, like playing board games, eating outside, watching extra TV all together, and fun games with my sisters [noted above].
All in all, July was a very fun, relaxing month, which was exactly what I needed. 
How was your July?

Running Wild in Impractical Outfits Tag

 Hello!  Elizabeth  tagged me for this, and I've been super excited about filling it out. Thank you so much! The Rules -Put a link to her blog,  Autumn Ink - Put a link to your post in the comments section of the original post -Tag people if you want to -Have fun with this tag, and feel free to add things, change locations, or whatever you want -The outfits you choose can be from anywhere you like [movies, books, TV shows, real life, etc.], and they can be as practical or as impractical as you want. Choose with as much flagrant disregard or custom for the rules as you choose.  -You have to bring a different fictional character of your choosing to each location. At The Beach Well, if I were at the beach, I'd probably want to wear a swimsuit, wouldn't I?  I'm not really sure what specific type of swimsuit I'd like, though. Probably just something similar to what I have.  This one is just a picture of a model, but I like the style. I would wear something ...

If I Was A Fictional Character [Tag]

Image
 Hello there! Random Buffy GIF just because.   Sam  did this tag on her blog, and I asked her if I could do it, and she said yes.  This looks like it will be a lot of fun. *rubs hands together gleefully* Share a snippet that includes a description of their appearance: She's flopped out on her bed, furiously typing up a blog post on her laptop. She's tall, and athletic looking with very long legs. She's dressed casually in ripped jeans [she didn't buy them ripped. They just happened to rip while she was wearing them, and they're her most comfortable pair, so she keeps wearing them], a mint green hoodie, and socks with llamas on them. Her hair is medium-length, wavy and light brown with blonde streaks/highlights. Basically my hair is like hers, only longer. Her favorite feature is her eyes. They're dark brown, and usually hidden behind glasses.  She has a small and wide nose, thin eyebrows, and a huge grin.  She's not sure if she's pretty or not, but she l...

In Which I Talk About My WIP

Image
 Greetings, friends! So, during my semi-hiatus, I did get to do a little more writing than usual, so I thought now would be a good time to talk about my WIP. So, here we are. I stole   borrowed this tag from Christine's blog. Technically, you're supposed to do it doing NaNo, but I'm doing it now.  What first sparked the idea for this novel? I'm not....totally sure. I know the idea first came to me in November 2020. It came from me wanting to write a book with magical powers, and I've always liked elemental magic, so that's sort of how it got started. Originally, I'd imagined it as a TV show, actually, and it was just a fun idea to play around with in my head, but then I ended up tweaking it a little, and it's now it's a whole novel. Share a blurb [or just an overall summary if you'd prefer]? I think I'll probably just give a summery, honestly, because that's easier. It's summertime. For most high schoolers. that means swimming, a nice...
